=== From Void to Deacon (03:18) ===

[00:00:00]  I promise you would always button the show with a good news story.
[00:00:04]  Shia LaBeouf. Remember him, of course.
[00:00:06]  He's a wonderful actor.
[00:00:08]  He always has been a wonderful actor.
[00:00:09]  But he has also been known as a very troubled actor.
[00:00:13]  Obviously, someone who was deep into drug addiction, also likely drinking as well.
[00:00:19]  And we have seen him radical.
[00:00:22]  You know, he was radically anti-Trump in a way that let you know that something was very wrong with Shia LaBeouf
[00:00:27]  And then something happened to him Shia LaBeouf was cast to play Padre Pio in the movie
[00:00:34]  also entitled Padre Pio and While playing this part he had a radical
[00:00:41]  internal conversion he became somebody different somebody that was ready to account for his sins
[00:00:48]  He's become remarkably more private and has said that he will owe for the rest of his life for the sins that he has committed.
[00:00:55]  Well, recently he announced that he is entering the Catholic Church.
[00:01:00]  Yes, Shia LaBeouf has been baptized.
[00:01:02]  And here is him sitting down with the man who baptized him, Bishop Barron, for a discussion regarding the plausibility of him becoming a deacon.
[00:01:12]  You and the deacon show up for this deacon's meeting.
[00:01:14]  That's the first time I met you. The deacons are all hanging out at the church.
[00:01:18]  I feel like, wow, it's amazing.
[00:01:21]  I get to sit in here. I feel like I'm not allowed to be there, but then all the deacons are being really warm with me.
[00:01:30]  It was mass first, right?
[00:01:32]  It's mass. We do mass, and then we have a little sandwich.
[00:01:36]  You do this talk about prayer and how...
[00:01:40]  It's really a simple four-step process, prayer.
[00:01:44]  And I needed somebody to simplify it for me.
[00:01:47]  Because it felt like, one, I needed to be defined.
[00:01:50]  I didn't want it to be this esoteric...
[00:01:52]  I needed something very defined and very practical.
[00:01:56]  I needed something very, like, boots on the ground.
[00:01:58]  And you said, quiet leads to loving thoughts.
[00:02:01]  Loving thoughts leads to loving action.
[00:02:04]  Loving action leads to peace.
[00:02:06]  And that hit me heavy.
[00:02:08]  Mother Teresa I was quoting there.
[00:02:10]  Whoever it was, it's changed my life.
[00:02:13]  So that's the new Shia LaBeouf.
[00:02:15]  Very different from the old Shia LaBeouf.
[00:02:16]  And this is what happens when you find God.
[00:02:20]  He has now found direction in his life.
[00:02:22]  A life that became directionless because he became what most people become when they become obsessed with Hollywood.
[00:02:28]  He became a radical leftist searching for a spiritualism and turning to all the wrong ones because there, as I have said in the past, is no such thing as an atheist.
[00:02:37]  If you have a void, a spiritual void, you will fill it with something.
[00:02:41]  And that something can be something It can become the climate agenda, right?
[00:02:47]  It can become any of these leftist apocalypse horsemen.
[00:02:52]  The environmentalism, you're going to fill it with that.
[00:02:54]  Can you radically care about that?
[00:02:55]  Feminism. I hate men.
[00:02:57]  Transgenderism. Tons of isms that people will suddenly turn to to fill a spiritual void.
[00:03:03]  And now Shia LaBeouf no longer has a spiritual void.
[00:03:05]  Obviously, they're discussing the possibility of him becoming a deacon.
[00:03:09]  From a lost actor to a deacon.
[00:03:12]  What an incredible journey, and it's one to watch.
[00:03:15]  You should go pursue that conversation that he had with Bishop Barron.
